Answer

SWOOP

This word describes a sudden, rapid descent or dive, typically to attack or seize something. It comes from the Old English word 'swapan' meaning to sweep. The word is commonly used to describe the hunting behavior of eagles, hawks, and other birds of prey as they dive toward their targets with incredible speed and precision.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a double letter, which can be tricky to identify. If you are stuck, consider trying words with repeated vowels since double O appears in many common English words like PROOF, SCOOP, and TROOP.
